For me Vampire Weekend have done what I thought not possible and thats make me totally feel repeled by a band after a shoddy live peroformance. Whilst nothing went wrong pe'say they were just irrritating... they had the charisma of a accountant in a grey suit and the stage banter was so cringe worthy that I wanted Times New Viking to come up on stage and do that Heath Ledger joke again..

Vampire Weekend were frustrating. They have these great songs (and I still think the album is brilliant) but they are so dull live. I think if they added a second guitarist, and the keyboard player sang a bit more it would make a massive amount of difference. It just seemed so one dimensional to me.

In a way I feel a bit sorry for them that they have had so much hype, but are still clearly not a fully developed live band. On the other hand, I don't, because they could be a lot better, even with just the four of them.

I still had fun as the songs are great, but I was, at the same time, very disappointed.

they were fine last time i saw them, but i wanted to set fire to them after two songs. had to leave.

having said that, i'd forgotten the clientele were even there until i just read their name. getting a cob on because you're on early on friday and people like you more in america? way to appear like a dick, sir.

vampire weekend were on too early i thought, a little later and that same set would have gone down fine.
